'''Kamikaze''', also known as '''Sacrifical KO''' or '''[[Suicide KO]]''', essentially refers to taking hold the opponent with a grab or otherwise and falling off stage with them, committing [[Self-Destruct]] as well as knocking out the opponent. While the use may sound questionable, it can be very effective in [[stock]] battles, especially when the player has already taken a critical amount of damage, to stay ahead.
 
[[Kirby|Kirby's]] use of kamikaze tactics is well known and very effective, and has been coined as "[[Kirbycide]]". Kirby can even avoid the SD in some cases.
 
* [[Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong]]'s kamikaze involves his Forward throw technique, a unique move that allows him to carry his opponents. He can jump off the stage with this technique.
* [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]]'s kamikaze is known as the [[Kirbycide]]. There are multiple ways to use a kamikaze move with Kirby, including both throws (64 and Melee only), the [[Final Cutter]] and [[Inhale|inhalation]].
* [[Bowser (SSBB)|Bowser]] is capable of a kamikaze move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' by using his [[Side Special Move]]; upon grabbing an opponent, he will do a jumping suplex move; the momentum is controlled by the player and can cause Bowser to jump off the stage, bringing his enemy with him. Bowser is on top when this move is used, so the victim will die before Bowser. The character grabbed by [[Bowser]] is able to wrestle above [[Bowser]] by rapidly pressing buttons, causing [[Bowser]] to die first. This is easier the less damage the victim has and the more damage that [[Bowser]] has.
* [[King Dedede (SSBB)|King Dedede]] is also capable of a move, nicknamed the "Suicidedede" or the "Regicide" by some. He uses his [[Inhale|Standard special move]] and jumps off of the stage, carrying the opponent with him. It's known that if this move is used in a Sudden Death match, Dedede will emerge as the victor. [[King Dedede]] is also able to Kamikaze by catching an opponent in the downwards motion of his [[Up Special Move]], the opponent will be spiked with low knockback in the same trajectory as [[King Dedede]] so they will be chained into another spiking hit until they are KO'ed. However [[King Dedede|King Dedede's]] [[Up Special Move]] is aimed strangely so it is very difficult to hit an opponent with.
*[[Wario (SSBB)|Wario]] can use his [[Chomp]] to grab enemies in midair, working in the same way as Dedede's or Kirby's kamikaze.
*[[Ganondorf (SSBB)|Ganondorf]]'s [[Flame Choke]] if you catch someone with it off a stage turns into a suicide, meaning you cannot leap in front of it to try and ruin Ganondorf's recovery (like you can to [[Captain Falcon (SSBB)|Falcon]] or [[Ike (SSBB)|Ike]]). This attack will kill the victim before [[Ganondorf]]
* [[Ike (SSBB)|Ike]] uses [[Aether]] to pull opponents down with him. [[Ike (SSBB)|Ike]] will die after the character caught in the [[Aether]]
